Abstract: This work is focused on the study of influence of selected organic additives on the properties and morphology of zinc deposit on the negative electrode when used in zinc-air accumulators. The deposition was made on the tin plate electrodes in a solutions of 6 mol/l KOH saturated with ZnO with added additives (Abeson Na 50, Flavol KDA, Span 85, Lugalvan G35 and Triton X- 100). All chosen additives were studied with a focus on the morphology of zinc deposit, with regard to their ability to suppress dendritic growth and with focus on zinc corrosion. Changes in zinc morphology were studied by using a Tescan Vega 3 electron microscope and a Rigaku MiniFlex HR 600 X-ray diffractometer.
Keywords: additives; battery; dendritic growth; morphology; Zinc-air
